Five Things (Dec 2013)

1. Third month of intense hairfall. Went to the derma yesterday and she agreed my hair fall is due to stopping my birth control pill. And that I should be patient because it would take at least 6 months to 1 year for my hair to stop falling. Why didn’t my gynecologist warn me about this when she prescribed the effin pill?!

2. Bought my second life insurance policy. Yey for being mature eh? I plan to leave Marion at least Php 5 mil so I have a long way to go. I prioritize this over a house or a car (err,i really just dont want cars) right now. After insurance, business then investments maybe. Gosh how stiff is my life?

3. I realized that I should invest in good makeup, shoes, personality dev’t. Okay so two days ago I had a meeting at a corporate office (Schneider Electric) and they were all made up and they know how to carry themselves well. They know eye contact, they know how to appear genuine and they act like they really care. I need those if I wish to have a career in selling ideas.

4. Lost my online job. For five years, I blog/tweet/facebook/write copy for a small cd/dvd duplication company in the U.S. I don’t feel sad or scared to be honest. It’s more like…alright woops, its about time. Moneywise, I have an emergency fund but that is all. I don’t want it to run out. que horror! But I have my video making gig (the meeting I had in #3) and the expected money is okay. So I’m not scared because it’s not like nothing is happening. I also plan to open a small nail salon in the province with my friend from high school. I need to save up for that. But losing the online job didn’t stress me out…at least not yet.

5. It’s Marion’s 3rd quarterly exam tomorrow. Lessons are getting very, very hard especially since she is challenged in the attention department. I tried my best and I’m sure she’ll try her best tomorrow. But if she won’t qualify to level up to Grade 1, then I’m totally fine with that. She just turned five anyway. I just can’t deal with the paghahabol sa grades while I’m doing my own paghahabol sa career. I myself repeated third grade and life became much easier. I excelled til college because of that. There’s no need to rush. Well except for my career. That needs a lightning-fast kind of rushing.
